Thanks my friend. I painted it first be...Hi Rudhi,<br />Thanks my friend. I painted it first because I liked the design and textures. When my wife and I were trying to find a title we googled playing cards and jack of spades and found all kinds of deep and interesting symbolism related to playing cards. By a chance, I swear, we found that the Ace is symbolic of God and the Jack of spades is symbolic of Satan. I swear I had no idea when I painted it...weird. So, in exploring this idea of good and evil we weaved our way into a lengthy explanation of the symbolism of Yin and Yang which can also symbolize good and evil. It went on to explain that Yin and Yang as it relates to good and evil is more of a healthy balance of the two. Both working in harmony to find balance and enlightenment. Cool, right? I would have settled for &quot;Ace and Jack of spades&quot; but thought &quot;Harmony&quot; might be a nice title if anyone was interested in the back story. <br />Thanks for your comment.<br />All the best,<br />ToddTodd Bonitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106002893113309433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25142554.post-20322979352781809942011-02-04T15:27:51.994-08:002011-02-04T15:27:51.994-08:00Thanks Kathy,Thanks Kathy,Todd Bonitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106002893113309433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25142554.post-65265310404727856692011-02-04T15:26:14.236-08:002011-02-04T15:26:14.236-08:00Jb,
